"DO YOU KNOW OF ANY PLACES THAT ARE HIRING?" The blonde had no issues with approaching anyone, the social butterfly often seeking out any conversation they could find, though in this specific case, there was an actual purpose behind their actions. Working at the veterinary clinic had become a near impossible venture when even just pulling into the parking lot of the building had Annaki thinking of their late mother, and the subsequent lack of closure where instead more heartache plagued the family, which lead to where they were now, a copy of the most recently published newspaper laid out in front of where they were seated at the coffee bar. "All of these jobs look really..." As they trailed off, their nose scrunched. "Hard." Often having a thought only be fleeting in their pretty little head, any type of demanding work was sure to be an ill fit. Dropping their chin in their open palm, their grey eyes looked down at Mochi as if the dutiful canine even needed checking on when he was content to sit by on the linoleum flooring, before looking to the person next to them then back to the newspaper that seemed to be of no aid. "I just want a job where I get to talk to people all day; that's why being a receptionist was glorious! How did you find your job? Is it perfect for you?"
"i'm not sure. maybe the bowling alley or cinema?" the other used to work with eliana at the vets, she was sure of it. "you know, jobs look hard but you apply anyway and they get even harder." emmeline was not in the right mind to be giving out career advice when she had been feeling disconnected with it. "i talk to people." the woman nodded slowly as she put her hands together. "i talk to people in a relationship but what do i have to show for it? i'm divorced... single, if you will, my former patients also suffering the same fate." she chuckled, not finding it at all funny but she was unsure how else to react in front of annaki. "like you, i love talking to people, to help them but what if i'm not actually helping them at all? no one blinks an eye at a random act of kindness, i'm okay with that, but that's..." her clients breaking up, the loss of her best friend, the telling that rosalind wasn't the one who killed eliana - it was too much. "maybe they're looking to hire at the mental health clinic, for another receptionist, if you like talking to people, that helps. i think it helps everyone in a way, even if they're rude because it's an acknowledgement."
